Okay. So, I am totally excited about exercising because it is getting so much easier to move around and to exert myself. I have been walking a lot lately but when I go for a walk I wear my Birkenstocks or my adidas swimming flip flops. I decided that as a serious athlete, I needed a serious pair of shoes. I mean, if I'm serious about making it into the 2012 Olympics in cheery old London, I have got to get myself an olympic level pair of sneakers. I walked into the store looking for some of the high class tenniss shoes from my day. Keep in mind that I have not purchased tennis shoes since like 8th grade. I had some good old LA Gears in mind or maybe a pair of Nikes with the air pump on the tongue of the shoe. Beleive it or not, they do not have those anymore. I selected a pair of Puma's that were adorably white and pink. The man brought them to me in a 10 and when I went to try them on I noticed that the tongue of the shoe was fringed. Like a golf shoe fringed. I asked the man if they were golf shoes and he affirmed that they in fact were golf shoes. If my chosen sport for the 2012 olympics was golf I would have been all over them but alas, I need running shoes. I then upped my budget and selected another pair. They did not have my size but he brought me another pair instead. I loved them!! But, they were 90 dollars. He could tell that I was not okay with that so due to my incredible sex appeal and hotness he gave me the hot skinny B discount. I am so excited and cannot wait to run a marathon around the block. Check these babies out!!
Now... check me out with them on. I think I look like Flo Jo. Their shiny like snake skin. They have the shocky thingys. They are incredible. Warning, before looking at the next picture. I could not find the black shorts from last time so I wore panty hose. Again, warning.
These shoes are remarkable. They make we wanna do some aerobics, tae bo, yoga, pilates, and buy a boflex. As soon as I put them on I automatically am compelled to go into a well choreographed aerobic routine.
I have 3 years and 2 months left to train. London baby! Cheerio!!

ok-I gotta know-how much was the skinny B discount?? They are really awesome looking shoes. If they make you want to get up and do the jig I guess maybe I need a pair. The sheer excerstion(is that how you spell it?) of putting my shoes on makes me want to take a nap!!!
Oh Donkey Balls!
Nobody told me this site was R-rated.
Mari, it was never more true that shoes make the outfit. But, I have always been a big believer in having as many shoes as possible. And there really is a Skinny B discount.
If you just had longer nails and bigger hair, you're right, I would have thought it was a picture of Flo Jo. All you need is a one piece Speedo which really looks good on any body form.
As to your earlier comment about only having four readers - there are more of us out here, we have just been silent. But a reference to shoes cried out for a comment.
Well, pip pip, ta ta, and cheerio (you're going to have to learn the local language when you get to L town)
First off, let me tell you and all "four" of your readers how extremely proud I am of YOU for your diligent dedication and efforts in your weight loss and fitness regime...but....the pantyhose.......
c'mon Mari! I'm speechless. (But very, very proud!!)
Love you,
Mom
